'' ' ' .Ettblic 1 Notices!' /irf/^yVft TO THE ELECTORS OF THE -:■ 1 ■. WAIMEAS. •■.•/.'•.■■.' ■'/' /^_ ENTLEMEN— I beg to inform .you it is my .'. VX intention to offer myself as a. candidate for the Waimeas at the forthcoming election for. the. ~: General Assembly. .■■•.;'■, \ 1 have been many times requested 'to put myself in the position of a candidate for the honor of representing this district in the General Assembly, but have always declined to accede to. tliose requests, preferring to confine myself to ,'' local purposes, in the advocacy of which I trust ; ' you have, tor the last twenty years, found me laithful and sincere, as well as in doing every-: ' tiling in my power to advance the interest arid ',".'• well-being of the province in the many public capacities in which I have been placed. Nor: do I now covet or wish ior honors, but am only actuated by a strong desire to uphold the privileges granted so liberally by the Constitution Act to the settlers of 17ew Zealand by the Imperial Parliament, and to maintain privileges like to those which the people of England are now striving to obtain in the Kef or m movement ; by a desire to see justice done to the bonafide settlers in JS'ew Zealand — the bone and sinew of the colony. I entirely disapprove of tie present mode of taxation, which lays nine-tenths of the burden on the industrial classes and their families to support the extravagance of the Ministry of the colony ; nearly exempting the wea'thy, especially lhose large holders of land who can boast of their thousands of income, but vho are not now paying in proportion to their wealth, for the support of the Government, anything more than a comparative fraction oi the burdens borne by the laboring man, who receivi.-s but a few shillings per day. As my polity and principles have been known for these last five and twenty years, I deem it superfluous io ihveii upon them, but at the hustings 1 viii answer any questions you may think proper to put io me. 1 am.
